    Robert Kraft recently became an investor in the league, so one could easily assume that whenever the PLL is ready to switch o the city based model that the Cannons will wind up back in Boston. Although I personally think we'll see them become the New England Cannons joining the Kraft sports family along with the Patriots and Revolution

    …don’t forget the Boston Uprising (Kraft’s e-sports team).  Cannons have high brand equity in the Boston area, but could go either New England or Boston Cannons

    I do like a lot of the darkened looks of the late '90s on their own, I just think that when so many teams did it, it really sucked some visual life out of the league. You had the Isles and Oilers going to navy blue, the Flyers ditching their signature orange in favor of the black uniforms, the Sharks started wearing their black alternates a lot more often at the expense of the teal unis, the Stars went from kelly green to a dark hunter green that was barely distinguishable from the black on their unis. Florida promoted their navy alternates to full -time road (then home) status instead of the bright red set, and the Flames were wearing that black uniform with the flaming horse head logo instead of red.

     

    Really, I don't think any of those looks were bad on their own, but when they all replaced brighter, and in some cases, iconic looks, it kind of made the league a little dreary looking for a while. 

    ... plus Whalers, Sabres, Kings (late 80s), Capitals all going dark from brighter colors (green, royal, purple, red) to navy/black. It was truly an epidemic.
